YouTube missing controls in landscape - Samsung Galaxy Mega

Guys, do you have this problem with missing controls or features in landscape mode? For example, latest YouTube app: the play controls disappear.
Or Yahoo weather, the additional info disappears.
These apps work perfectly on other smartphones.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Same problem here without any clue of how to solve it !!

I had the same problem but then it comes back after an update, which means it may be gone again after the next update.

YouTube app bug orientation problem

I know this post isn't appropriate, but Google doesn't seem to be responding for months. Back to the point whenever I change the orientation while a video is playing I get a huge black bar taking up space, does this bug happen to anyone else? Can I fix this problem?

Yeah. I can confirm this bug for the official 4.1.2 firmware. The top bar seems to be misplaced after switching orientation.

[Q] S pen Scrapbooker

Don't know if I'm missing something here but I can't seem to save video to scrapbooker using my s pen. When I try an do it I draw the circle and it just saves the image not the video. Anyone else having this problem or am I just doing something wrong!

Yeah I had that issue. I read it's due to the recent update to YouTube. But the alternate route to take is hitting the share button of the YouTube video and share it to your scrapbook that way.

Having the same thing. Plays about 10-20 seconds then freezes. If I open the Facebook app on my old Galaxy S3 and try the same video it plays fine.
This is quite annoying. I also encountered this problem only on my Z2. My other device plays well...

If possible uninstall all updates down to v 6.0.0.28.28 if not possible just Google this version and install it videos should work then we just need to wait for Facebook to fix their s#itty app.
Don't forget the thanks button if this works for u

I don't think this bug from facebook.apk because others device like samsung, lenovo and etc work properly... Maybe this bug from stock fw...

Facebook messenger pull to refresh

Hello all
I have just returned to android after a spell with an iPhone 5s.
With the ios version of Facebook messenger you have the ability to pull to refresh but it appears this is not available on the android version. Or am I missing something?
A Google search did not really help
Thanks

I think you are missing something, it's been a standard feature for as long as I can remember?
Just had a flick through my settings nothing seems required to enable it?
Have you updated?

Thank you Curioct
Made me try again and you have to pull on the top half of the screen. I was always going for the bottom half.
Thank you
